About College



Okay, my parents are very strict about education, im only a sophomore in high school and they are already drilling me about how I need to start thinking about college and all that fun stuff.

I want to go to college, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t want to go right away. i want to take a year or two off just to find myself and what i really want to do with the rest of my life.

Ho do I bring this up with them with out getting an explosion from them?

How to receive a Pell Grant?

Pell Grant



Ok. I applied for a Pell Grant for my college. But, the financial advisor denied it because both of my parents filed for the head of household in their tax return. Is there another way for me to receive the Pell Grant without them both filing for head of household. They also don’t want to file joint returns.
